Les Miles has coached 142 games in 11 seasons at LSU.

Number 143, it appears, will be his last.

Miles indicated to members of the Gridiron Club on Friday that Saturday’s matchup between LSU and Texas A&M would be his final game as the Tigers' head coach, sources at the meeting told Tiger Rag.

The coach appeared in good spirits, sources said, reiterating messages that he’d "always be a Tiger” and "thanks for a great 11 years," but informed the booster club's members, in an indirect but clear manner, that Friday’s meeting would be his last with them, even explicitly saying he would not be coaching LSU’s bowl game.

I appreciate everything he did on and off the field, but it was needed.

it has been a good run, but time for change after these last 3 games. We need a coach who can develop a qb, throw to the tight ends, and take advantage of the elite speed we have in certain players. Just to name a few things we need.

Les Miles has coached 142 games in 11 seasons at LSU.

Number 143, it appears, will be his last.

Miles indicated to members of the Gridiron Club on Friday that Saturday’s matchup between LSU and Texas A&M would be his final game as the Tigers' head coach, sources at the meeting told Tiger Rag.

The coach appeared in good spirits, sources said, reiterating messages that he’d "always be a Tiger” and "thanks for a great 11 years," but informed the booster club's members, in an indirect but clear manner, that Friday’s meeting would be his last with them, even explicitly saying he would not be coaching LSU’s bowl game.

Fox Sports’ Bruce Feldman announced yesterday Miles would be "let go as the coach of LSU” on Sunday or Monday. That would appear to open the door for former LSU offensive coordinator and current Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher to return to Baton Rouge as Miles’ replacement, a scenario Football Scoop’s Scott Roussel considers to be LSU’s primary plan.

Miles has posted a 110-32 record at LSU, and his .775 winning percentage is the best among LSU coaches with a minimum of 25 games coached. He won two SEC championships, three SEC West titles, and the 2007 BCS National Championship, with a runner-up finish in 2011.

Miles’s contract with LSU runs through 2019, and if he is in fact fired, LSU will owe him a $15 million buyout.

A gridiron club member to me just now said #LSU coach Les Miles told them today, "I hope to meet with you guys again before the bowl game."

Yeah, just one of the most successful coaches of all time. And his replacement that everyone seems excited about is a guy who couldn't even consistently keep FSU good? I don't get the excitement.
